Fully agree here. I think it’s evident more that mythos does not deliver step change results and more is a disappointment.. so let’s hype it up by further scaring the masses of its ‘mythic’ abilities

It is sinister that this is overlooked by corporations by “accident”. What you are describing exactly what is sinister, that children’s safety controls and parents ability to decrease the risk comes last.

Reminds me of the book “this is how they tell me the world ends” - a history on cyber weapons. It’s written from the perspective of a journalist without a comp sci background but delves deeply into the topic of how cyber weapons are procured, priced, and sold to multiple agencies in the same government. It’s unfortunate these are used for exploits and not for reporting bugs or vulnerabilities. Stockpiling exploits only makes everyone less safe

This is completely true for non -cloud, on-prem hosted code/programs, but this notion disappears when programs/software is hosted in the cloud, and updates can continuously occur

Sadly I think if or when pig heart transplants are successful in humans, pigs will be commoditized even further, if that is even possible. Poor creatures :(
Not a reason to stop this research in my opinion but I agree with the comment I’m responding to - wish people could care for the animals we treat as test subjects, seems somewhat cruel to not do so

Agreed completely. Crazy to see this endless iteration on ad optimization and maximizing screen time has made disinformation, polarization, and conspiracy so common. Really destroying society from the bottom up IMO

The free market does not regulate itself. The big plastic producers have lobbied and muddled the waters endlessly to confuse the public and blame consumers on their awful environment damaging products. Less than 10% of all plastics across the world have ever been recycled

Between Reddit and bogleheads, that is all the financial wisdom you need. Bogleheads has deeply shaped my investment approach and it should be the same for 95%+ of other people as well.

> If anything, the amount of shadow work foisted on customers has increased. Somehow it's a norm to have to go through a bunch of bullshit to have errors corrected and often just to get halfway decent service. It's obviously worse in industries without meaningful competition, but society in general seems to put up with it and assume that's just the way it is.
